Stereo / Mono setting - FM

Your radio will play stereo FM broadcasts in stereo provided that the 
received signal is of adequate strength. However, as a stereo signal 
becomes weaker the audio signal will become poorer. It may be preferable 
to force the radio to play the station in mono in order to reduce the level 
of background hiss.

button to switch on your radio.

2.  Tune to the required FM radio station as previously described.

3.  Press and release the

button to enter the FM menu.

4. Rotate 

the 

Tuning 

control (Tuning buttons on remote) until 

'FM Audio'

 

appears on the display. Press and release the 

Select

 button.

5.  To switch to mono to reduce the hiss from a weak FM signal rotate the 

Tuning 

control (Tuning buttons on remote) until 

'Mono'

 appears on the 

display. Press and release the 

Select

 button to con

fi

 rm the setting.

 

The current audio setting will be marked with an asterisk.

6.  Alternatively to return to stereo, rotate the 

Tuning 

control (Tuning 

buttons on remote) until 

'Auto'

 appears on the display. Press and 

release the 

Select

 button to con
